Fast Robot Delivery and Great Prices - by Ms Duggan, Whangaparaoa College GATE Programme

Having never done Robotics before, I took it on as part of my Year 7 & 8 Enrichment Programme this year and found the Edison bots so easy to use and work with. I found some lego which meant we could style our robots which the kids loved. Total engagement every lesson - what a winner.

Super fast delivery and great advice on the phone for a newbie with these products. Thank you MindKits.

Buy these!!! - by A Jacobsen

I purchased the Edison robots for my Digital Technology department to add authentic context to the new DT curriculum. They are robust, easy to program and adds excitement to the classroom. The Edison by itself is great for Junior team-based programming tasks, or, alternatively with the extension pack, great for L1 or L2 achievement standards (develop a computer program).

EL Wire, also known as Electroluminescent wire, a thin phosphor coated wire in a tube that lights up when you apply a high AC voltage to it. When an AC signal is applied to it, it glows an aqua color. Sometimes it is covered with a colored plastic shell to make it appears to some other color. It looks a little like thin neon. Very bendable, it keeps its shape and you can curl it around your finger.

This is EL is 2m long, we have 5 different colors of EL Wire for you to choose from. Recommend to use the 2xAA pocket inverter to drive the EL light.There have been so applications using EL wire to create amazing products such as Tron Costume and EZ-EL Tutu Skirt

Features

Color: Purple(Please note that the color of the real product maybe be slightly different with the picture due to the Screen&Photo Shooting)
EL wire can be bent, paste or hang up, can be made into any shape and length so it is very easy and convenient to install and use.
EL is \'cold\' , it is low power consumption (cold light, 97% electricity converted into light, no heat loss), no UV, soft light,environmental friendly materials.
The light radiation at night is extremely bright, eye-catching.
EL wire requires a driver/inverter that can provide 400-2000 Hz, 60-120VAC
Higher frequency/voltage results in a brighter wire
Running the wire brighter will lead to a reduced lifetime
EL wire is capacitive, and cannot be PWM\'ed or easily dimmed
Ultrathin, lightweight, easy to use for production and construction of everything.
